Chapter 501: Chapter 59: Fortune Spiritual Treasure, Favor of a Crowned King (6K)_4

Initially, when Zhao Xing proposed creating a top-level investigation team to Liu Tianning, why did Lao Liu hesitate?

Because it was not a favorable task at all, it would increase the burden and delay their cultivation progress.

"But precisely because being an investigator is hard, after the promotion of Grotto Heaven, the original investigator quotas were not taken back, and those officials who held the quotas were free to recruit people."

Ji Ziyun remarked, "What was once a tough job has now become a lucrative one, serving as a reward for hardworking officials."

"Now countless people want a quota, but it’s as difficult as ascending to the heavens."

"Alright, cousin, no need to dwell on it anymore," Xia Jing said with a smile, "Let’s hurry and continue our search for opportunities."

"Alright, let’s set off!" Ji Ziyun smiled.

...

In the following three days, Zhao Xing received no further requests from the prince.

Because Liu Tianning had filtered them, only letting suitable ones contact Zhao Xing.

And on the fifth day after the prince issued his prohibition.

Just as Zhao Xing anticipated, the Military Realm began to increase the missions for investigators at all levels.

"Low-level investigators must find ten types of fifth-tier treasures every three days and submit no less than a hundred pieces."

"Mid-level investigators must locate ten types of treasures of at least the fifth tier every five days."

"Advanced Investigators must submit sixth-tier treasures. If they fail to complete the task three times in a row, they will be demoted," Long Xiao couldn’t help saying, "There’s no such thing as a free lunch, this is sure to be exhausting."

"If you don’t do it, there are plenty of others clamoring to take your place," Chen Shijie said.

"All treasures must be submitted," Zhao Xing said, "Those are the rules."

"It’s tiring, yes, but the benefits are tremendous."

"For instance, the Lingzhi, fruits, and thousand-year-old ice crystals we discovered earlier, you can use as much as you can consume, as long as you have the capacity to digest them."

"Exactly," Xia Jing nodded, "We are all soldiers of Great Zhou, after all, the meat is bound to rot in the pot."

Zhao Xing said, "With the thousand-year-old ice crystals, we five don’t have to worry about the submission task for the next ten days, so we won’t search for treasures anymore."

"Then what are we looking for?" Long Xiao asked.

"Heaven and Earth Spiritual Beauty, like Ten Thousand Skill Spiritual Beauty, Fortune Spiritual Beauty, Lifespan Spirit... these are what truly matter to us," Zhao Xing explained.

"Mr. Ji, you mentioned seeing fire in water earlier, was it in that direction?"

"It seemed to be," Ji Ziyun pondered.

Zhao Xing maneuvered the Flying Boat, took a turn, and immediately flew in the direction Ji Ziyun had indicated, "Old Chen, Xia Jing, Long Xiao, keep an eye on our surroundings."

"If you see a winged beast in the sky resembling an ape, or fruits like infants... any such phenomena, let’s chase them immediately."

"Alright."

After Zhao Xing finished speaking, he activated his Heavenly Eye, looking around from the Flying Boat.

The Qi Observation Skill in the Dayan Scripture not only allows one to see a person’s fortune but also the location of ’Fortune Spiritual Treasure’!

Fortune Spiritual Treasure, fundamentally a type of fortune, is the condensation of the natural fortune in the mountains and great rivers of the world.

According to Ji Ziyun, that ’fire in water’ might well be a Fortune Spiritual Treasure.

"Hmm?" Suddenly, a streak of red light flashed and disappeared within Zhao Xing’s Heavenly Eye vision.

"Long Xiao, lower the altitude, to the ninth latitude southeast valley," Zhao Xing instructed.

"Got it!" Long Xiao immediately perked up, controlling the Flying Boat to descend.

Upon arriving at the location, all five were invigorated.

Beneath them in the valley lay a hot spring, steaming hot with flames moving in the water—clearly extraordinary. At the same time, all experienced a surge of inspiration.

"We’ve found it, this is the place!" Zhao Xing’s eyes blazed with excitement.
